    Abstract

    A total of 58 children aged 4-5 years who were diagnosed as having transient tachypnoea of the newborn were studied. In contrast with the control group (n = 58), the infants with transient tachypnoea of the newborn had a significantly higher incidence of recurrent (more than two) episodes of wheezy breathlessness, symptoms consistent with asthma, and signs consistent with atopy.
